Die onboarding experience bei bluesky ist sehr verwirrend, man sucht erstmal vergeblich nach alternativen Apps, dann gibt es nur einen Server mit einer total merkwürdig zusammengewürfelten Community, dann werden einem lauter Leute zum Folgen vorgeschlagen, die man nicht kennt, und die lokale und föderierte Timeline habe ich überhaupt nicht gefunden. Sorry, so kann das leider nichts werden :(
Giving Fairphone shit because while trying to build a long-term viable, sustainable and socially and economically fairer device they also think about the people in the real fucking world who are supposed to use them and offer them the software most of them rely on (like Google Apps) is more toxic purism than I can stand.
People who are willing to suffer in their life by using something different, something slightly incompatible to what the rest of the world uses already do install roms and run whatever on their machines.
Getting real actual people to buy a phone that's not built to be thrown away in a year of two, that highlights the values of sustainability is a huge win.
And making the medicine ("your phone might not be as fancy as your peers' phones") taste sweeter ("for 8 years you have access to all the applications you need for your life to function within a digital society") is just a smart move.
@cwillmes@tante Someone who does not want clean water badly enough to understand public infrastructure and can run their own filtration system should not drink water then.
Someone who can't afford and does not know how to cook a healthy meal does not get to eat.
Someone who is not excellent at math deserves to be screwed over by a bank.
Is that what you're saying? Because that's pretty much what you were saying just now. Just in "computer" instead of water/health/finances.
@cwillmes@tante my point is: lots of shit is complicated. We nerds just often point to computers and say "everyone must be this tall to ride".
And that clearly sucks.
We need better legislation. We need better alternatives. We need to grab corporations by the balls. We don't need to put more strain on the individuals who have a ton of other things to worry about.
@SmartmanApps a thing she does very differently is, she tries to find and cite primary sources. A thing I strongly recommended to you since we started our former debate. A "cause I said so" or "I know this, trust me" reasoning simply is not very convincing.
Also the change CASIO did for the north american market was very interesting because it hints at something we also superficially discussed - regionally different interpretations (even if that just means "regionally taught wrongly").
@SmartmanApps filename of a PDF hardly counts as referencing a source. Maybe I did not look at it because I was distracted by the Drake Meme. I don't know.
Been doing some research into implementing migrations for Domain’s JSDB database (basically, JavaScript data structure migration) and it’s amazing to me how many of the solutions out there use semver to version databases with no good reason.
If your database requires a migration, it is a major version. Where does minor and patch even come into it? Why complicate it beyond version 1, 2, 3… etc.?
I do wish folks would stop and think for a moment before adopting things without understanding them.
@aral rails timestamps the migration (iso8601) and has one table that keeps track of applied migrations. This is a good idea in a scenario where Multiple Devs might add migrations on separate branches where a single version number would fall short.
Ok then, my turn to do an ask me anything thread. Reply to this with any question you want and I'll answer it, provided it's nothing ridiculous like "How do you wipe your arse when you're blind".
